25、 One is called “doctor medicine“ or “scientific medicine“. Scientific doctors try to observe sicknesses, look for logical patterns, and then find out how the human body works. From there they figure out what treatments may work. This kind of medicine is believed to date from the 4th century BC. Alth
26、ough nowadays it is successful, in the ancient world this approach probably did not cure many patients. The second kind of medicine is called “natural cures“ or “folk medicine“, in which less educated people try to cure sicknesses with various herbs (草药 ). These folk healers also use observation and
27、 logic, but they are not aware of it. They try things until they find something that seems to work, and then they keep doing that. Folk medicine flourished long before the development of scientific medicine and was more successful in ancient times than doctor medicine. The third kind is called “heal
28、th spas“ or “faith healing“. Sometimes this is as simple as touching the holy man and being immediately healed. Other times, a magician may make you a magic charm, or say a spell, to cure you. Some religious groups organize special healing shrines (神坛 ) for the sick. In these places people rest, get
29、 plenty of sleep, eat healthy food, drink water instead of wine, and exercise in various ways. They also talk to the priests and pray to the gods. If you are feeling depressed or you have been working too hard, going to these places may be just the fight thing to make you feel better. 60 Which of th
30、e following about doctor medicine is TRUE according to the passage? （ A） It has a longer history than folk medicine. （ B） It has been practiced for around 1,600 years. （ C） It bases its treatments on observation and logic. （ D） It was very successful in curing sicknesses in ancient times. 61 Accordi

32、ound basis. （ B） People who practice folk medicine need lots of formal education on herbs. （ C） The success of folk medicine led to the development of doctor medicine. （ D） Natural cures worked better than scientific medicine in ancient times. 63 The authors primary purpose in this passage is to_. （
33、 A） describe different types of medicine （ B） argue for the importance of medicine in health care （ C） show the crucial role religion plays in medical treatment （ D） compare the educational background of three different types of patients 64 Whats your idea of a good time?
